Canon Photomarathon 2010 19:30

Wassup everyone!

The annual Canon Photomarathon will be held soon on 23rd October 2010. Some of our members from NYPPC will be going to take part in the competition, so if you're interested, join us! We could go as a group (or in small groups if there are many people) to tackle the themes. More brains is more power right?

What is a photomarathon?
Well, basically, its a photo competition where you'll have to submit 3 photos based on 3 themes, but... there's a catch. The themes will only be released on the day itself; one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening. So you'll have to be quick thinking and creative to get your perfect shot. No pre-planning, no taking your time, cos there's a time limit too.
So if you're spontaneous and like a good challenge, join us on the 23rd! OR, if you just want some fun, and like to take it easy, join us too! Just remember, its not about winning, its all about having a good time and learning.

Heres the excerpt from the Canon Photomarathon 2010 (SG) website

Venue: Suntec City Hall 401
Date: 23rd October 2010 (Saturday)
Event Time: 0730hrs to 1930hrs
Registration Fee: SGD 10


Singapore's largest one-day photo competition returns for an 8th consecutive year on 23rd October 2010.

Participants will once again compete in the Open and Student categories throughout the day, shooting to fulfill three pre-determined themes that will only be revealed on competition day.

Besides standing a chance to the latest Canon cameras, two Best of Show winners will travel to Turkey for a 8-day photo clinic led by professional photographer Triston Yeo.



You'll have to register direct with Canon, and theres a $10 registration fee, but based on the past few years, you'll probably get a free shirt,a photo print coupon, and a drink.

If you're joining, do email us nyp.photography@gmail.com , so we can go together as a group and have lots of fun!

See you there!

Meeting Canceled and Club Tee matters 20:30

Hi NYPPCians!!!

just to let you all know, the meeting which was scheduled for this Friday will be postponed till either the last week of holidays, or during the 1st week of the new semester. We will update you all on the meeting via our Facebook and blog. Thanks for all your e-mails about your attendance for the meeting and your shirt sizes! It feels good that you all reply our e-mails. :D

Just a reminder to e-mail us your shirt sizes so that we can make the club tees. Just today, we were told by our club advisors that we are able to choose the following specifications for our club tees:

  1. Material of the shirt
  2. Polo tee or standard tee
As such, we will be creating a survey using SurveyMonkey, and would like you all to complete the survey for us! Your data will help us make better decisions!

Lastly, samples for the sizes of the shirts will also be given out at a later date. We might set up a session for our members to try out the samples in order to better select their shirt sizes. Look out for that!

Cheers

Meeting and other important info 17:06

Hi NYPPCians!!!

We've got some very important information you need to know!!!

First, our club will be having a meeting this Friday (17/09) in school, room E307, at 6pm. We will be meeting up with our club advisors, Mr Guru and Mr Jeffery Ong, and will be discussing about the future of our club and other plans as well. Attendance for this meeting is compulsory, unless you have a valid reason.

The next thing we would like you to know is that... WE WILL BE DESIGNING OUR VERY OWN CLUB TEE (T-shirt)! How cool is that! As such, we will require you to e-mail us your T-Shirt size, so that your shirt won't be a super body-hugger and give a very tight hug, or your shirt won't be too loose, till you look like you're swimming in it. Sizes range from Small to Xtra Xtra Large. Details about the cost of the shirt will be given to you all at a later date. In the meantime, just send us your shirt size, for we are still in the planning stage.

Please e-mail us your attendance for this Friday's meeting and your T-Shirt size by Wednesday (15/09).

Cheers
